Also Designer Alexandre Girard was there. Damn how I loved his design, or some of them. Julie you should check his jobs, I think you would love 'em. He used to be a designer for Hermann Miller for several years and some of them was really nice, a bit like old scandinavian style I think. Or more like Finnish style. I might be wrong, but thats the way I feel.
One more interesting part of the museum was the poster collection. Look for a poster from Reax Ray or David Singer, ofcouse you cannot forget to mention Urban Inks as well. I rally loved them and there's something missing from Finland in that area. People are now brave enough to do some ultimately crazy and weird posters. People are just too concervative in Finland I think, they are not - well maybe I could write that - I wasn't able to be creative because I thought too much about the expectations people have. Trying to change that one now... We'll see what happens.
The last room I visited was a video installation of Phil Collins. The video installation is a part of three-part video project - the world wont listen. This is a second part of it and its recorded in Turkey. It's called dünya dinlemiyor. In the installation Collins invite people ot sign karaoke and he films them. Its way too hillarious and funny. It was nice to realize that people in Turkey are not that outside from the western music or from the western world over all.
The SFMOMA was really a nice plave to visit. If you ever got to SF that's something you have to do. But there's also a lot of other smaller galleries that are worth of visiting. SF is a place where you can find anything, arts, parks, business, beach, city, nature you name it. The only thing that's not with in the bicycling distance is Mountain where you would be able to snowboard. Too bad have to move for some other city than.
I'll keep you posted trm and tell you about Washington - thats different from SF, but way too cool as well. And yes I did the White House and Capitol tough not going to tell you about those. Going to tell you about music and arts.
Anteeks tää on vaan englanniks. Mulla ei oo aikaa kirjottaa tota suomeks, mut se kertoo San Franciscon Modernin Museon keikasta. Sinne kannattaa ehdottomasti mennä. Vietin siellä joku kuus tuntia ja se ei ollut tarpeeks. Suosittelen suuresti. Huomenna postaan Washingtonista ja sen taiteesta ja musiikista. Philadeplhia on taas musiikin kaupunki, et sieltä tulee varmaan jotain siltä saralta, tai ei sitä ikinä tiiä.

Seems like you are on an artsy journey!!
I will make sure to check Alexandre Girard work. If it has somewhat of a scandinavian feel, I will indeed probably like it!
